The Madison West Kiwanis Club was chartered in 1959 and is a member of the Wisconsin-Upper Michigan District. As with most Kiwanis clubs, the Madison West Kiwanis Club is a snapshot of the community, with members (men and women) from all walks of life and at every step of the career ladder. We are unified in the belief that children and the community benefit from the efforts of caring and involved volunteers. In a typical year, the club invests more than 1000 volunteer hours and $35,000 in support of the Madison community.
